I'm not entirely clear as to what you were trying to convey with this piece, Alex. I detect a bit of mockery aimed at gold investors or sound-money advocates, which I trust was not your intent. Thanks for clarifying if you have a chance.

I have nothing against gold investors or sound-money advocates, but within those groups, there is definitely a subset of conspiracy theorists. This is mainly a humor piece in which I take a lighthearted dig at those people.
